Derailed

from Faded Polaroids by Dirty Outs

lyrics

German-designed
Four-thousand feet of polished steel
Alberta pride
Until the coaster lost its wheel
Twice that day operators closed the ride
But the metallic sound could not be identified
So they let 'em ride

Black out the sun
Triple loop thrill
Momentum was lost up that final hill
Panic set in
Roll down the track
Metal to concrete, fade to black

An inquiry found
Translation problems were the cause
Bolts worn down
Design and manufacturing flaws
Hundreds at a concert watched it fail
Hurled to death as the yellow train derailed
A morbid tale

A world record mall in '81 with movies and arcades
Gawking at Gretzky on the ice, a steel blade ballet
But book stores died and so did Tony, Cindy, and David
The Mindbender, she did survive, a memorial belated
